Gilardini Realty is a private, family-backed real estate investment and development firm with a nearly century-long legacy in property. With active investments across Europe and the Americas, we specialize in acquiring, managing, and repositioning commercial real estate assets. Our approach emphasizes long-term value creation through careful asset management, selective development, and opportunistic transactions.

Opportunity

As part of our expansion strategy in Italy, we are seeking to partner with an experienced real estate asset management company with a strong track record in managing portfolios valued between €50 million and €100 million. The selected partner will work closely with Gilardini Realty to identify, acquire, manage, and enhance the performance of our growing portfolio of Italian real estate assets.

A. Deal Sourcing

• Identify and present value-add and opportunistic investment opportunities in the Italian market.
• Provide strategic insight into market dynamics and emerging trends.

B. Transaction Advisory

• Advise on all stages of the acquisition and disposal process, including due diligence, financial modeling, and structuring.
• Support negotiations and liaise with local advisors and stakeholders.

• Oversee day-to-day property operations, including lease renewals, re-gears, and rent reviews.
• Manage capital expenditure projects, tenant relations, and ESG-related upgrades.

Segments of interest

We are specialized in healthcare related assets and are rapidly expanding into other segments.  Our main areas of focus are:

·      Healthcare (except care homes)

·      Logistics / industrial warehouses

·      Land used for transportation e.g. parking for both cars and trucks

We are particularly interested in multi tenanted buildings and would prefer fully-tenanted assets as opposed to assets which are unlet.
